As is always the case, do not adjust your dose unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to do so.

What Is the Recommended Talacen Dosage?

The usual recommended dosage for treating mild-to-moderate pain is one tablet every four hours as needed, up to a maximum of six tablets a day. This dosage is the same for adults and children who are at least 12 years of age.

Each Talacen tablet contains 650 mg of acetaminophen. This is important to know because you should not take more than 4000 mg of acetaminophen a day from all sources, as higher doses can be toxic to the liver.

Keep in mind that several products contain acetaminophen, including many prescription and non-prescription pain medicines and even many nonprescription cold and cough products. For some people, the maximum recommended daily dose of acetaminophen may be even lower -- check with your healthcare provider.

Your body may become accustomed to Talacen, especially if you take it for a long period of time, and you could develop withdrawal symptoms if it is stopped suddenly. Therefore, your healthcare provider may choose to gradually reduce your dose before stopping it completely.
